Wanakenya, Are our 210 Mps more brilliant than all of us combined?

The reason as to to why i think so is; We are so happy and claps when a politician stands infront of us and says; ” Mps must pay taxes according to the law”. What does the law say, The only taxable income is the basic- {Accountants can clarify this}. This means that Mp can only pay taxes on ksh 200,000 which is their basic and tax is 30% of this amount.

Now, an interesting point- SECTION 90 OF INCOME TAX LAW- states; Any person who is deducted any amount erroneously will have that amount refunded within three months.

ERRONEOUSLY- means that any amount that is deducted and is not stipulated by law.

This means- all the mps who are publicly claiming to pay tax now just needs to write to KRA behind our backs and claim, they were erroneously deducted some money and a cheque will be written to their favour.

This is because, legally, that tax was erroneously deducted from their salaries.

Kenyans, how can we salvage the situation?

Truly they have taken us for fools because we are neither lawyers to interpret the law nor accountants to know exactly how much they pay to the tax man.

Please Kenyans let the professionals in this field help us out
